Perfect for your wake in Little Brickhill

It works for everyone.

If the funeral is at a church such as Church of St Mary Magdalen, a hall or home nearby keeps the journey to the wake short.

Choosing a fish and chip van

Takeaway run or book a van?

DIY food keeps costs down, but the host spends the event serving. With a fish and chip van, you get hot food without the work.

For a small group, making your own food can work. For larger numbers, or when you want hot food, a van takes the pressure off, and you get to enjoy the day.

Why choose a fish and chip van in Little Brickhill?

For warm food after a funeral, a chip van is a gentle choice. Many fish and chip vans set a minimum, because the van, fuel and travel cost the same for a small group. We’ll tell you up front.

Why book with us

  • Classic food your guests already know
  • We cook inside the van, whatever the weather
  • Mushy peas, curry sauce and gravy on the side
  • No kitchen, no crockery, no washing up

FAQs for Little Brickhill

Can you serve after a service at Church of St Mary Magdalen?

Yes, at a nearby hall, home or venue with somewhere for the van. Food is generally served at the reception venue rather than the church. Tell us where you will gather.

Do you come out to small places like Little Brickhill?

No, we come to small places too. Tell us about lanes, gates and the ground.

How quickly can you come?

We understand the timescales, so send us the date and we will answer right away.

How do we estimate numbers?

Start with a rough number, and we will firm it up nearer the day.

Can you be flexible on the day?

We plan for delays. We will work to your contact on the day.

How long will the queue be?

That depends on numbers, menu and timing. Give us your numbers and service window, and we’ll plan service around it.

Which areas do you serve?

We cover London and the South East, Milton Keynes included. See all areas.

Can the van park on grass?

That depends on the weather and the ground. Tell us about it when you enquire, and we will advise.

Step by step

Your timings come first. If the day runs behind, we simply start frying a little later, so the food is still fresh when it’s served. In autumn and winter, it is dark early in Little Brickhill; plan a lit path from the door to the van.

  1. You share your date, numbers and address.
  2. We check access for the van and quote.
  3. We arrive early to park and heat the fryers.
  4. Fish goes into the batter and straight into the fryer, to order.
  5. We serve hot from the hatch and pack up when we are done.

Before we arrive

  • Leave room in front of the hatch for a queue
  • Name one person we can call on the day
  • Give us your final numbers and allergies
